Mazda Xedos

The Mazda Xedos was a range of executive cars launched by the Japanese manufacturer Mazda in 1992 under the Xedos name. The first model was the Xedos 6, similar in size and engine choice to the BMW 3 Series, offered with a 24 valve V6 of 144 horsepower and a 16 valve four cylinder of 107 horsepower, and facelifted in 1994. It was sold as the Eunos 500 in Japan, Hong Kong and Australia, and 72,101 Xedos 6 and Eunos 500 cars were built. By 1994 a larger model, the Xedos 9, joined it, comparable in size to the BMW 5 Series, and was marketed as the Eunos 800 in Japan and Australia and as the Mazda Millenia in the United States. Production of the range ceased in 2000.
